Enviro-Pave
RTC’s Enviro-Pave is made from recycled rubber granules and decorative aggregates bound together with a specially formulated polyurethane binder. It is water-permeable surfacing solution that fully meets the Sustainable Urban Drainage System (SUDS) requirements.
With the choice of three colours, it has slip-resistant qualities make it perfect for inclined pathways and the following areas:
- Pedestrian Walkways
- Bicycle Tracks
- Equestrian Routes
- Rural Trails
- Golf Courses
- Protection For Tree Bases
- Training Facilities
- Residential Renovations

Why Enviro-Pave?
- It meets all of the Sustainable Urban Drainage System (SUDS) requirements.
- Once installed onto a suitable sub-base it reduces the risk of flooding because it is fully porous.
- It can reduce or even eliminate planning requirements
- Enviro-Pave requires minimal maintenance.
- It is impact absorbent and flexible – therefore as it is flexible it is less likely to crack, thus minimising trip hazards.
- Enviro-Pave uses one of the most problematic wastes known to man.
- Once the surfacing has cured it is considered inert and non-toxic.
Accreditations
RTC’s Enviro-Pave has been tested for slip-resistance and porosity.
All three colour systems comply with the requirements of BS 7188 for slip resistance in both wet and dry condition and BS EN 14877 for the water infiltration rate.
As the mixture includes large quantities of recycled rubber tyres, the surface has excellent environmental credentials.
How is it Installed?
Firstly the rubber granules (which are made from recycled rubber tyres) and the decorative aggregates are mixed together in a ratio to suit the individual project. The mixture is then combined with the polyurethane binder before being applied to the substrate. Afterwards it is then leveled to the depth required by rake, screeded or trowelled before finally being smoothed and compacted with a roller.
Once it has been installed and left to cure it is considered inert and non-toxic. It becomes porous which reduces the risk of flooding – and in winter the reduced risk of puddles means there is less likely to be ice patches which could prove dangerous to pedestrians. It is also wheelchair and pram friendly, meaning your pathway will be accessible to all.
